USGS HUC 03020201 Coordinates 35.6496522,-78.5666753
Location description: The proiect area is located on the north side of New Bethel Church Road and the east side of Hebron
Church Road,in Garner,Wake County,North Carolina.
Description of projects area and activity: This verification authorizes the permanent discharge of fill material into 0.0577 acre
(268 linear feet)of stream channel(0.0496 acre [215 linear feetl of which is considered a permanent loss of waters)and 0.183
acre of riparian non-riverine wetlands,and the temporary discharge of fill material into 0.014 acre(96 linear feet)of stream
channel and 0.035 acre of riparian non-riverine wetlands(0.006 acre of which will result in the permanent conversion of
forested wetlands to herbaceous wetlands),necessary for construction of access and infrastructure for the Cambria residential
development.This proiect will also result in the indirect reduction of wetland function to an additional 0.016 acre of riparian
non-riverine wetlands via partial loss of hydrology.

SPECIAL CONDITIONS
1. In order to compensate for impacts associated with this permit, mitigation shall be provided in
accordance with the provisions outlined on the most recent version of the attached Compensatory
Mitigation Responsibility Transfer Forms. The requirements of these forms, including any special
conditions listed on these forms, are hereby incorporated as special conditions of this permit
authorization.
2. No permanent discharges of dredged or fill material are authorized for the utility line crossing of
Stream B as shown on permitted plan "Cambria" Sheet No. CWI-2.19. Stream impacts for this
utility crossing will be avoided through the use of trenchless techniques such as jack and bore or
horizontal directional drill.
3. Following construction, authorized temporary impacts to wetlands and stream banks must be
returned to original grade and contour and stabilized and seeded with regionally appropriate
native seed mix according to detail 3 on "Cambria" Sheet no. CWI-3.0
4. Suitable habitat for tricolored bat (Perimyotis subflavus) may be present at the site. On September
14, 2022, the USFWS published a proposal in the Federal Register to list the tricolored bat as
endangered under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). The permittee understands and agrees that
all work associated with the clearing and removal of trees and removal or modification of culverts
must be completed prior to the effective date of the final listing in the Federal Register. Work
associated with the aforementioned activities not completed by that time must cease and the
permittee must contact the Corps' (Attn: Mr. Richard Harmon, [phone] or
Rich ard.G.Harmon(-)usace.army.mil) to determine if additional coordination with the United
States Fish and Wildlife Service is required under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act prior
to continuing work.
5. Stream and wetlands impacts authorized herein are considered part of the Cambria residential
development single and complete project. Please note that future impacts and/or phases of the
Cambria residential development as well as related activities associated with Corps Action ID:
SAW-2021-01965 may be considered part of a single and complete project. These impacts may be
considered cumulative with impacts authorized during earlier phases with respect to
compensatory mitigation and Nationwide Permit thresholds. Current cumulative impacts to
waters of the US for the Cambria residential development single and complete project include a
total loss of 0.0496 acre (268 linear feet) of streams and 0.183 acre of wetlands, or a total of 0.2326
acre of waters of the US.
6. Based on the permittee's voluntary commitments and consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service pertaining to Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act, the following conditions are
required:
a. A double row of silt fence must be installed in areas within 50-ft of delineated streams and
wetlands, to ensure that sediment is captured effectively.
b. All vehicles must be inspected for leaks immediately prior to entering the jurisdictional
impact areas each day. Any leaks must be repaired and construction vehicles thoroughly
cleaned to remove any residual dirt, mud, debris, grease, motor oil, hydraulic fluid,
coolant, or other hazardous substances.

SAW-2021-01956
Special Condition 6 continued...
c. When not in use, materials and vehicles must be staged in upland areas outside of the 50-ft
riparian buffer. The size and number of access corridors for construction vehicles must be
minimized in jurisdictional water and riparian buffer impact areas.
d. All disturbed soils within jurisdictional impact areas must be restored to grade and
temporary stabilization measures must be implemented as necessary to prevent erosion
until the area can revegetate.
e. Outlets from silt fence and other construction erosion control devices may not discharge
closer than 50 feet to the top of bank of any stream, except at road and utility crossing
locations where there is not a feasible alternative due topographic constraints.
f. Outlets for each row of silt fence must be offset to provide additional retention of water and
sediment in the outer row.
g. All mechanized equipment shall be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent
contamination of waters and wetlands from fuels,lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other
toxic materials. In the event of a spill of petroleum products or any other hazardous waste,
the Permittee shall immediately report it to the Corps at
Richard.G.Harmon(a)usace.army.mil, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) at
kathryn matthews(dfws.gov, and N.C. Division of Water Resources (NCDWR) at (919)
733-3300 or [phone], and provisions of the North Carolina Oil Pollution and
Hazardous Substances Control Act shall be followed. Inspections, repairs, cleaning, and/or
servicing must be conducted either before the vehicle, equipment, or machinery is
transported into the field or at the work site;
h. All drilling muds, wash-water runoff, and/or other harmful materials must be
appropriately controlled to prevent entry into a waterbody or riparian zone.
i. Vehicles and equipment must be fueled and maintained, and potentially toxic substances
(fuels,paints, solvents, lubricants, etc.) must be stored, within a containment area in
uplands.
j. Temporary and permanent stabilization measures should include only natural materials
that are expected to degrade over time.
k. Impacted areas will immediately be stabilized and revegetated. Portions of the site outside
of rights-of way (with inherent requirements) must be revegetated with native seed mixes.
